Peers push for Palestinian state recognition Bill amid opposition in Lords

The Palestine Statehood (Recognition) Bill was brought forward by Liberal Democrat former minister Baroness Northover.



A bill proposing UK recognition of a Palestinian state, tabled by Baroness Northover, is facing opposition in the House of Lords despite support from some peers. Supporters argue recognition is essential for Palestinian self-determination and aligns with a two-state solution, while opponents claim it could incentivize terrorism or is premature due to the lack of a functional Palestinian state. The bill faces challenges due to limited parliamentary time.
